MEMPHIS — Sophomore Anna Mae Boyd peaked at the perfect time to break the Cherokee High School 5K record and lead the Lady Chiefs to a fifth-place finish in the TSSAA Division 1 Class AA Cross Country State Championships on Friday, Nov. 6, at Shelby Farms Park in Memphis. The fifth-place team finish is the top team finish in school history for Cherokee’s cross country program, which featured a roster of five sophomores and two seniors in the 24-team field at the state meet. “The fact that (most of us) get to run together for two more years is really exciting,” said Boyd. “Everybody’s really good at cheering each other on and pushing each other to do our best.” It was the Lady Chiefs’ second consecutive trip to the Class AA state meet, following back-to-back Section 1 championships. Boyd led the way, finishing 18th in the 175-competitor field with the school-record time of 20:00.97. It was 37 seconds faster than her previous best and broke the Cherokee all-time 5K record set by Harper Russell in 2015. Sophomore Kenady Deal ran a season’s best 20:39.69 to finish 25th overall. Sophomore Elin Bryan finished 68th in 22:25.22. Senior Elizabeth Coward finished 73rd

Hensley is back at Carter Fold this Saturday night

HILTONS, Va. — The Carter Family Fold is back in action after a week off for Halloween, and will welcome Trey Hensley & His Bluegrass Band back to the historic venue this Saturday night at 7:30 p.m. Trey Hensley is a Grammy-winning guitarist, singer, and songwriter from Johnson City, Tennessee, whose musical journey has been intertwined with the Carter Family Fold since childhood. A true prodigy, Trey first stepped onto the Grand Ole Opry stage at just eleven years old, performing alongside Marty Stuart and Earl Scruggs. Not long after, he met Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash at the Fold, where he performed with members of the Carter Family and later played at June Carter Cash’s birthday celebration—an early milestone that helped shape his lifelong connection to traditional music. Raised in nearby Telford, Trey began singing gospel at age six before discovering bluegrass guitar, quickly developing the fiery flatpicking style that would become his signature. His early career included several acclaimed bluegrass recordings with his band Drivin’ Force, produced with guidance from Tom T. Hall. Over the years, Trey has shared the stage with icons including Ricky Skaggs, Charlie Daniels, The Oak Ridge Boys, J.D. Crowe, Peter Frampton, and
